What is the VW Fun Cup ?
Â
Between leisure karting and professional motorsport, there was still a great place to be taken.
This is why the VW Fun Cup was born in 1997.
Since 2012, this category has made a new start in the automotive world, to temporarily be named Be Trophy.
2014 was the come-back of Volkswagen and our VW Funcups.
It's a real racing car - tubular frame, rear mid-engine, 180 horsepower for 820 kilos - but it's not just for racing drivers, as there are two-seater versions.

Â
An original concept
Â
The VW Fun Cup is a concept of international motor racing which has met with unprecedented success.
In 2009, we saw more than 60 cars at the start of each round of the Belgian championship and 151 cars at the 25 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps!
The reasons for this enthusiasm: the cars, the format and the atmosphere of the events perfectly meet the needs of the drivers and the objectives of the companies that have chosen to accompany them on the adventure ...
There are companies such as: Quick, Uniroyal, Monster, Mac Donald's and many more !
A real racing car: tubular chassis, rear mid-engine, 132 horsepower for 760 kilos for gasoline, since 2009, blue motion tdi, 180 horsepower for 820 kg.
In 2013, a 3rd generation gasoline kit arrived, thus offering the gasoline / diesel balance.
In these 3 categories, there are single-seater and two-seater.
